Xiaomi today announced the successor to their immensely popular Redmi Note 5 Pro, the Redmi Note 6 Pro in India. The newer offering now has a taller 6.23-inch display with a notch and dual selfie shooter. The camera set up on the back remains the same as that of the last generation with a minor change in the main camera aperture. Both the front and back cameras have AI features including AI portrait and AI scene recognition. The rear camera can recognize scenes in 32 categories, including 5 which are India specific, and the front camera can detect 12 categories.
Other specifications are almost same to that of the Redmi Note 5 Pro, including Snapdragon 636 with up to 6GB of RAM, Dual 4G VoLTE, rear-mounted fingerprint sensor, and a 4000mAh battery. The phone supports Quick Charge 3.0+ out of the box but Xiaomi isn’t bundling a fast charger with the smartphone.
